AI-powered memecoin terminal

Photon trading API: what exists, and the BLIX route

Photon is one of the fast Solana terminals: a sniper, quick buys, about 1% a trade, with a wallet generated in the app. As of October 10, 2026 it publishes no trading API, SDK or developer documentation, so "Photon API" wrappers you find drive the website or your account, and break when Photon changes. If you want Photon-style speed from a bot, the BLIX trade API builds the transaction for your own wallet in one account read and sends it over staked connections; the sniper people use Photon for is a short script against the stream, shown below.

Facts about Photon checked October 10, 2026 against its site and public reviews; Photon's terms govern its product.

A Photon-style sniper, as a script

Photon's sniper waits for a launch and buys on your settings. The same thing as code is the launch stream, a filter on the holder ledger, and a build with a higher priority fee and tip for the first seconds; what to filter on and how much to risk stay yours.

// Node 22+ (global WebSocket). A Photon-style sniper: every launch as an event, a filter, then the build.
const H = { authorization: `Bearer ${process.env.BLIX_KEY}`, "content-type": "application/json" };
const ws = new WebSocket("wss://blixvip.com/api/v1/stream?key=" + process.env.BLIX_KEY);
ws.onopen = () => ws.send(JSON.stringify({ method: "subscribeNewToken" }));
ws.onmessage = async (e) => {
  const m = JSON.parse(e.data);
  if (m.txType !== "create" || m.solAmount < 1) return;                         // the dev bought at least 1 SOL
  const h = await fetch(`https://blixvip.com/api/holders/${m.mint}`, { headers: H }).then((r) => r.json());
  if (h.bundles.pct > 10 || h.snipers.pct > 20) return;                          // first-block wallets hold too much
  const built = await fetch("https://blixvip.com/api/v1/trade/build", { method: "POST", headers: H,
    body: JSON.stringify({ wallet: WALLET, mint: m.mint, side: "buy", sol: 0.1, slippageBps: 500, priorityFeeSol: 0.0005, tipSol: 0.001 }) }).then((r) => r.json());
  // … sign built.transaction, POST { transaction } to https://blixvip.com/api/v1/trade/send; the answer carries landedMs and the slot
};

Sniping new launches is the riskiest trade on pump.fun: most coins bought in their first seconds go to zero, and a bundle can be invisible until the ledger is read. The filter above is a starting point, not advice.

Using your Photon wallet in the bot

Photon generates a wallet in the app and lets you export its private key; a bot can trade that same wallet through BLIX by loading the key locally and passing its address as wallet. Alternatively make a fresh keypair for the bot and fund it: the API treats any Solana address the same, and Blix never holds the key either way.

The trade API itself is documented once: the four calls, the flow in curl, what a trade costs, the rules, limits and what is live and what is next.

Frequently asked questions

Does Photon have an API?

No public one as of October 10, 2026. Photon is used through its website; wrappers that claim to be a Photon API drive the site or your account and can break with any release.

Can I build a Photon-style sniper on BLIX?

The pieces are there: the live stream (every launch and trade as events), the holder ledger and AI grade to filter on, and build + send to act with your own wallet. The sniping logic and the risk are yours.

Is the BLIX trade API custodial?

No. You sign every transaction with your own key.
